On-hold payment

[jvcious23]

PayPal's services is a scam holding payment by as long as 21 days and requiring stringent conditions before money is released to recipient. And recipient pays a hefty fee just to be inconvenienced by PayPal. Terrible customer service!!!!

They are holding my payment,charging a fee,saying my account has been inactive which isn't true either,saying the transaction is me selling something and I'm not! 😡

Hello @jvcious23 and @Peeved2,

Welcome to the PayPal Community! I'm sorry to hear your recent transactions are on hold and have received a fee. It sounds like the funds were sent as a Goods & Services transaction, in which case a fee will normally apply - and a hold may occur from time to time. Here are a few resources on fees, holds, and receiving payments you may find useful:

Why is my payment on hold or unavailable?

What are the fees for PayPal accounts?

What's the difference between friends and family or goods and services payments?

I hope that helps!
